Trying to network my Debian 2.2/Corel Linux box to my [EMAIL PROTECTED] cable
modem.
Failing.
No trouble getting my Mac and my Windows box to talk to the modem, but the
same settings fail on my Linux box.
The thing is, I'm pretty sure everything is set right on my Linux box. Apart

I have somehow managed to get things so that the computers going through my
Debian 2.2 box for NAT can do DNS just fine, but I can't do a nslookup from
the same box itself to save myself.
nslookup never returns anything, even a timeout. My /etc/resolv.conf file
shows the same things I have set on
I still can't make my games work from inside my firewall.
I was hoping someone could offer me specific instructions; the things I've
tried to do with ipmasqadm and ipautofw don't seem to have done what I told
them to do.
So here is what I need. My Linux box is 192.168.0.5. My PC is 192.168.0.2.

Hi.
I want to get some games and other things working on machines inside my
Linux NAT server.
eg for Close Combat, I need ports 47624 and 2300-2400 on both TCP and UDP
redirected so from the outside they look like they're going to/from my Linux
box, but everything gets redirected in both directio
to do.
So have you gotten this to work?
And do I need to adjust my ipchains if I am running the proxy on the NAT
machine?
TIA

How can I do a screen (or ideally, a window) capture under Debian (I am
running Window Maker with Gnome, if that helps).
TIA
While there is a debian netatalk distribution, I can't find any useful
documentation for getting it working. Most of the instructions I can find
refer to compiling and installing it on Red Hat, and the instructions don't
match what I have.
I've tried searching the debian archive, but it never turn
ter package I can ask for that will
reinstall Debian 2.2? What else can I do? This sucks!
TIA

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

In trying to install a sound driver, dselect has somehow decided to remove

Okay,
I asked the question a little while back about how I can set my window
manager. So far I have been advised to edit, in different messages from
different people:
/etc/X11/window-managers
~/xinitrc
~/.xsession
I've also been advised to run register-window-manager --default, but when I

I want to get right into customising this thing (currently ranked as
newbie). So I installed the Afterstep desktop instead of KDE. Kinda nice, in
many ways.
But I miss some of the nice little apps from my Corel KDE stuff.
I've found that I can fire up the file browser by executing CorelExplorer.
I worked out why X wouldn't start (had my XFree86 config wrong).
Thanks anyway.
Hi all,
After choosing afterstep and some other stuff in dselect, when I reboot my
machine, it says it's starting kdm, but nothing happens. And when I do exec
xdm, it just logs me out.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!
I'm a newbie at this. I figured I'd get started learning to customise all
this stuff by installing a new Window Manager. I like the look of AfterStep
(one of its skins in particular), so I've downloaded all the relevant bits.
But I can't work out how to get Afterstep to come up instead of KDE. Can
out.
This shouldn't be so difficult! I've done all this stuff over and over with
minor permutations, eg the route table in the opposite order, but I can
never get anywhere.
When I try to ping the gateway, ping 24.8.xx.129, I get nothing back.
Heelp!

I couldn't get Corel Linux to work until I switched my drive from the
UDMA/66 port to the normal one (I have a BP6 mobo and UDMA/66 drive).
The benchmarks I've seen (eg on Thresh) show the /66 to be way faster.
Is there any way I can get this to work?
TIA
